Allow tables to bypass WAL writes and just fsync() dirty pages on
commit. To do this, only a single writer can modify the table, and
writes must happen only on new pages. Readers can continue accessing
- the table. Another option is to avoid transaction logging entirely
- and truncate or drop the table on crash recovery. These should be
- implemented using ALTER TABLE, e.g. ALTER TABLE PERSISTENCE [ DROP |
- TRUNCATE | STABLE | DEFAULT ]. [wallog]
+ the table. This would affect COPY, and perhaps INSERT/UPDATE too.
+ Another option is to avoid transaction logging entirely and truncate
+ or drop the table on crash recovery. These should be implemented
+ using ALTER TABLE, e.g. ALTER TABLE PERSISTENCE [ DROP | TRUNCATE |
+ STABLE | DEFAULT ]. [wallog]
